How is information in the DDD caregiver status acuity scale used by DDD?
(1) Information obtained in the DDD caregiver status acuity scale is one of the factors used by DDD to determine:
(a) The amount of waiver respite, if any, that you are authorized to receive; and
(b) Your individual and family services level, if you are authorized to receive individual and family services.
(2) The DDD caregiver status acuity scale does not affect service determination for the medicaid personal care or waiver personal care assessment; and
(3) The information is used for reporting purposes to the legislature and the department.
